Both agreements are DRAFT, adapted from Apache ICLA v2.2 / CCLA v2.0, and must be reviewed by legal counsel before enforcement. - legal/individual-cla.md: ICLA (copyright + patent grant, representations, agent-submission clause, assignment-to-Foundation clause) - legal/corporate-cla.md: CCLA with Schedule A - legal/README.md: enforcement runbook — recommends CLA Assistant Lite (GitHub Action, signatures stored in our own repo) over the hosted app; documents the manual admin steps (PAT secret, per-repo workflow) that cannot be automated Entity framing: Obiwan Co., Limited as trustee, with an explicit clause allowing assignment to the Agentic Commons Foundation on formation (clean transfer).

Runbook recommends CLA Assistant Lite (GitHub Action — signatures stored in our own repo, no third-party data custody) over the hosted app, consistent with the project's data-ownership stance. Say the word if you'd rather use the hosted app.
